The A3 Advantage
Unlike traditional CPM solutions –
the behemoths that require you to abandon your spreadsheets
– A3 is the industry’s first enterprise-class
analytic application that actually capitalizes on your existing
spreadsheet models and exploits the decades of Excel expertise
in your organization. Its familiar spreadsheet interface makes
short work of training and migrating, and its deep integration
with Excel puts virtually no limit on its flexibility. |

Secure and Timely Management Reporting & Analysis
A3 Modeling interfaces tightly with a wide variety of corporate
ERP and operational systems to enable timely and secure management
reporting and analysis. In addition, the Spreadsheet Automation
Server technology capitalizes deeply on Excel for both the end-user
interface and the configuration environment. As a result, users
avoid the presentation constraints of traditional proprietary reporting
technologies, leveraging, instead, the full extent of their Excel
modeling skills in the creation and distribution of financial reports.
